BEDA 23: My semi-weekly peace.

With the first month of NY2TX coming to a close, I've come to love the weeks when I only make two videos. I just realized today that I am going to have to start planning the first video for my own channel. May is approaching faster than I ever would have thought and, as it speeds towards, I want to take a second to slow down. By "slow down," I obviously mean that I'm going to bitch about all the projects that I've taken on it the last month.

In December, I had it in my head that I was going to do the 50 Book Challenge. 50 books in 52 weeks. Completely doable, right?

Then I decided I was going to do was BEDA. I didn't think that it would be that bad, and it hasn't been. Minus, of course, the fact that my computer decides to wait a few days before actually posting each blog. BEDA is pretty simple as it's basically me, vomitting my words into the Blogger website for innocent people to read.

Then, just a day into BEDA, I message Caroline about NY2TX. We start the project the next day, with my video. And it continued since then.

With the establishment of NewYorktoTexas, I decided that I was going to start making videos on my own channel in May. I picked May because it seemed so far away, yet it's still before VidCon...Now we're only a week before the start of May and I need to make a video. Should I go the Kristina Horner route with a video response? The Haley Hoover route with a catchy outro? Maybe a Nerimon style vloggity vlog?

So many choices!

Good night Internet!

BEDA 22: Violating Interstate Speed Limits

I am coming to you now from a vehical on Interstate-95, North Bound, going 85 miles an hour. Now, I am almost completely sure that the speed limit is 65 miles per hour, but you try telling that to my mother. Decided against it? Oh good.

The purpose of this post is not for me complain about my mother's terrifying driving habits. This is basically a recap of my weekend.

If I had to put a word on this weekend, it would be wonderful. Sometimes you forget how great it is to be with family until you spend a bunch of time with them.

I guess that's it.

BEDA 21: Movies

I saw the Hunger Games today with my two cousins, Sarah and Lauren.  From the previews and news coverage, I didn't really like the casting choices, but once I saw the film I came to love their choices. 

I know most people have seen this film already, but I'm not going to go in depth in a review or anything. This is just me letting y'all know that I saw the movie. 

Dinner tonight. Okay. So, we went to this BBQ type place called Smokey Bones, and it's kind of amazing. They have great food, they play great music, and there's great service. 

I'm really not looking forward to tomorrow because we're leaving and then I have homework that I can't do until I get back to Rockaway because I didn't bring the BlueTooth receiver for my keyboard. I'm smart.

Oh! I finished New Moon. So that's something...productive...that I did. Sort of. 

Tomorrow's post will be better Internet. Promise.

BEDA 19: Death

If you read this bloggity-blog of mine, you may have caught on to something: I am weird. I am the product of two very very strange families and I am very lucky that I turned out the way I did, which is moderately normal. Yeah, I know.

Something else you may have picked up (I'm not sure if I mentioned it or not) is that I am Irish Catholic. The Irish part may not seem significant now, but just wait. So a stereotype most people know about irish people (other than the drinking) is that they really like wakes and funerals. I don't know why. But it's hereditary. Now comes in the catholic. In my town, wakes are the time when you see people you haven't seen in years. And funerals are not a "celebration of life" they are a time for a final blessing of the body before burial. They're more for the living, though. (I am not a Theologian. I'm just a girl whose family likes death.)

So what brought this on, you ask? Well, 10 years ago today my grandfather died. I didn't just want to make a depressing blog post all about my dead grandfather who I miss more than anything so therefore this post was born.

So you learned something knew and I wasted five minutes of your day. The usual here on my blog. You learned something that will do nothing to help you other than to stay away from the funeral home in Rockaway. Well that is helpful.

Bye Internet.

BEDA 18; Videos During Homeroom


My New York 2 Texas video today was completely scripted during my morning homeroom. At 8:10 in the morning I was sitting in Room 315 and I pulled out an old notebook and started writing the five facts I would use for my video and I then wrote the song. 

My teacher looked at me a little strangely as I sat in my seat flailing my arms wildly, reciting a script to an imaginary camera. Let me rephrase that. Very strangely. 

People tend to look at me strangely,though. I'm usually walking around my town (or jumping ) with my camera talking/singing to myself.

BEDA 17: Birthdays and Doctors

I feel like birthdays are becoming a theme in my BEDAs. Well today is Matt's birthday. I don't really know what to call Matt. I don't think he's my friend. I know he's not my boyfriend. I know he's my friend's brother, and my other friend's best friend. But to me? Well when I mention him in a story and someone says, "Who's Matt?" I sort of automatically think....he's my Matt. What else do you need?

My friends and I know quite a few Matt's: Matt Sav, Matt Buckley, Matt Pap, Matt Gamb, and Matt Prasenski. Matt Sav is, just that, Matt Sav. Matt Buckley is Buckley. Matt Pap, Matt Papa. Matt Gamb is Upstate Matt and Matt Prasenski is My Matt. I my friend says something about a Matt, I will usually say, "My Matt?" Which is odd due to the fact that I have no possession of him. He is, and has never been, nothing more than a neighbor. He's just...mine.

So today is his fifteenth birthday, and so begins the 3 months and 8 days that he can continuously say that he is older. Yupp. It's fun. But I'm a year ahead in school, so ha.

I went to the doctor today for my foot. They still don't know if it's broken. How frustrating. My doctor wants to send me for an MRI which is irritating as well. I think that he thinks there is nothing wrong with my foot. I'm not a fan of doctors really. Sometimes they're great, and when they're great, they're great. But when they're not great? They're terrible.


Good Night Internet.

I want to finish New Moon by Friday.

BEDA 16: Birthdays and Unfair Teachers


Let's start this off on a light, happy note. Today is my friend Dylan's 16th birthday! And tomorrow is my...Matt's 15th birthday. {Not sure what to call him. Neighbor? Friend? School Mate? Kid I Want to Sell to Guatemala?}  So I'm very happy for them.

Now on to the fact that my WHAP {World History AP} teacher hates me and is planning my combustion as we speak. Ms. B and I have an interesting relationship. I'm clumsy and as a result I am often on crutches. Since I'm clumsy and I'm on crutches, I often fall, make loud noises with those crutches, or just have a spaz attack and they fall to the floor. Ms. B doesn't like that about me. I have to say though, I am an acquired taste. 

So I try to work hard in her class but she doesn't call on me. Ever. I sit in the front row. I will be the only one with my hand up. She will not pick on me. Ever. How am I supposed to learn this extremely difficult material that you obviously don't know how to teach if you don't answer my question? Think!

SO I had an 87 average 1st trimester, but then I received a 78 2nd trimester because I did poorly on the Mid Term. I want to pull my grade back up so that I can prove to my parents that I am responsible enough to do homeschooling, but she doesn't teach me. 

I got a B- on my essay today when a girl who wrote a shorter essay with the exact same comments as mine got a B. There's a four-point difference. I got an 80, and she got an 84. I'm really not a grade-grub but I just don't think it's fair for the teacher to grade me on a steeper curve than the other girls. 

Okay. I'm done. 

Goodnight Internet.

BEDA 15: RIP Vacation


You know how after you've been off from school/work for two weeks and the night before you go back you're just thinking to yourself, "noooooooo?" Sort of like in those cartoons when something bad happens the show the character falling off a cliff screaming, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO." Yes. That is what I am experiencing right now. 

I really have never liked school. It doesn't really make sense because I'm smart and I like the whole learning aspect but not so much the "social" aspect. I actually hate the social aspect. It all just seems so manufactured to me. You know, the whole, "I have to get to class! What class do you have? I have a free. Are you in my ___ class? Oh your not? Oh too bad. Hugs!" just seems like everyone is trying to live up to what old school Disney Channel shows about Middle/High School {Lizzie McGuire, Even Stevens, That's So Raven, etc.} always idealized. Always having a group of three friends: you and two others. It just doesn't seem right.

That brings me to the topic of this blog.

I would love to be homeschooled and I'm trying to convince my parents. I would have so many opportunities open to me that I don't have right now. I could take classes that aren't available to me. I could travel. I could pursue my dreams. This isn't me trying to convince anyone that homeschooling is better. It's just better for me. 

Okay Internet. That's enough controversy for tonight.

BEDA 14: High Speed Internet?

Well, it's Saturday and I slept practically all day. I go back to school on Monday and I'm not looking foward to that. I've been staying up until 3 am practically all week.


I can usually sit down at my computer and open BlogSpot and the words will just flow onto the page. Not today.

BEDA 13: A Long Day of Nothing

Today was, well, interesting, i guess. I didn't really do anything.

I got invited to the Sweet Sixteen of this girl I barely know. I met her at camp this past summer and then I get a text from her 8 months later asking for my address so she can send me an invitation to her Sweet Sixteen. Yupp. I got it today. I have to RSVP by tomorrow. I'm probably not going. I'm not much of one for very social interactions. That's why my best friends are two of the quietest people who have ever attended St. Francis; Jimmy and Caroline. Jimmy mostly shrugs. Caroline mostly...well she's not exactly quiet since Nicole corrupted her, but that's another story...was my friend by default.

Not that I don't love her to death, but we basically became friends because we're both smart, neither of us smoke or drink (yeah, that's a rarity in Rockaway), and we're both girls. Also because neither of us really fit in well with the BH girls. Due to the fact that neither of us smoke, drink, or make out wih random guys at the age of 12. Well we don't do any of that now, either, at 14/15.

I don't really have anything left to talk about.

Goodnight Internet.

BEDA 12: The life of the coolest person I know...

I spent my entire day watching Netflix, specifically a little gem called The Secret Life of the American Teenager.  Oh how darling it is. I drink a sip of lemonade every time they say sex, and I have the hiccups by the first commercial break.

That's basically all I have to say. I'm a loner who watched Netflix all day and ate Coco Puffs.

BEDA 11: Crazy People at the Airport

Today I had to do what every one who is on holiday must do: I boarded a plane to return home. I had to wake up at 7am to pack my bag up because I was charging my phone and everything and then got downstairs for tea with my uncle. He made me a bagel and we talked until my mom and, eventually, my aunt came down.

We left for the airport at 8, planning to be there at 8:30. Yeah, we got there even sooner. We were at the airport and through security by 8:35. The security line was so short it was beautiful. Nothing like JKF at all! CLT (Charlotte Airport) was so not crowded. That is why I love it. For someone who flies loads, a non-crowded airport is a blessing. Kennedy drives me crazy. I hate flying out of there. And also in because they take forever with baggage. But I live in NY ( for the time being) and it's kind of unavoidable.

So I met these adorable old people at the gate. They were doing a cross word puzzle and every now and then, they would look away from each other and pull a face. Alright, I'm weird, but it was cute.

We started boarding at about 10:30. And as I sat on the plane and we began to pull away from the gate, the pilot came over the loudspeaker and said that there would be some turbulence until we hit 9,000 feet because there was a heavy cloud cover. Then he turned on the seatbelt sign, and started take off. Let me just say, that was the worst take off I have ever experienced. So just as the plane starts bobbing in the air and rocking back and forth, some lady, decked out in metal, gets up and starts towards the bathroom in the back of the plane. She keeps knocking into people and falling all over the place and I'm just like, What the hell are you DOING?


Moral of the story? If you are decked out in metal and high heels getting up during a turbulent flight, and you fall on me, I will kill you. Or at least want to kill you. But I probably won't because I'm not very keen on going to federal prison.


Okay, goodnight, Internet.

BEDA 10: I have no creativity today.

I'm just drained today. No creative juices flowing. No energy. Just meh.

My NY2TX video was about weather. And a stuffed horse. Yes. That's how low I've gotten. Given, it was a funny take on weather, but still weather.

I was playing Scatergories with my family today. That's a normal family activity, right? Yeah, take that and times it by Kelleher. Ahhhh.

We had the letter B and the category was Politicians. What does my extremely conservative grandmother write down? Oh, nothing other than, "Bojangles in the White House."

Yes, we are very creative people.

BEDA 9: Too Much, Too Soon

Do you ever get that feeling that you're taking way too much on, way too soon? And then you do it anyway? Yeah, I know. Most logical normal people don't. I am not logical nor am i normal.

First I decide that I'm going to read 50 books in 2012. That's all well and good and, more importantly, doable. Than I propose the NY2TX project to Caroline, and she says yes. Still doable.

Then, I realize it's April 1st and I had decided months ago that I was going to do BEDA. Oh yes.

Now add that to other things that I had to do, such as homework, and barn chores, and Seaside. (this horse program I work at: www.s4tr.org) and you have a stressed out Theresa Kelley.

I'm really glad that I'm not going to start making videos on my own channel (theresak419) until May, because that is just way too much.

I'm sitting in my room at my aunt's house and there is a life-size pony next to me. It's funny though, because while it id the size of a Welsh-Shetland cross, it has all the attributes of a horse, probably a thoroughbred or TWH.

Okay, Internet. That's all for now.

BEDA 7: Explaining This Internet Thing

Today, I took upon the task of attempting to explain this whole internet thing to my family. Yeah, that went moderately well.

I've always been pretty involved on the internet; youtube, portkey, mugglenet, pen pal sites, etc. The works. So I was able to ease my family into all of this. My aunt, however, was not so prepared.

At 1:00am, I got here in Charlotte. After a quick snack, I pulled out my decrepit laptop, Louis, and started editing. My aunt then proceeded to ask me what I was doing and I attempted to explain. argh.

I tried to ease her in with, "I'm very involved with YouTube, and I am going to a video conference called 'VidCon' in June." Yeah, that didn't ease her so much. "UH-HUH. So what do you MEAN?" I tried t go a little more in depth, "I make videos on YouTube with my friend Caroline who lives in Texas." I didn't phase that so well and quickly added, "She used to live in Rockaway. I know her." My aunt came back with, "OKAY...So what does this mean?"

She still seams a little on the fence about the whole thing. Even after a whole day of my showing her or videos. Yeah, can't wait till tomorrow when I have to film another vlog. Argh. That should be fun.

Okay, Internet. It's almost 11 here and I need to wake up at 6.

BEDA 6: Cars, Airplanes, and Pokemon

Today is going to be so crazy. I've got homework and packing to finish up today and then we have to leave at 7pm for the airport.

The flight to NC takes off at 9:59pm and lands two hours later. Between arrival at JFK and arrival at my aunt's house in NC, I some how have to film a NY2TX video.

That's 6 hours. To capture, playback, edit and upload the video. I can so do this. (I don't think I can do this...)

I already told Caroline (the other half of NY2TX who can be found here: www.nerdfighter-like.blogspot.com ) that my Friday video will probably be online at 2am Saturday because I won't be at the house until almost 1am then to get some last minute footage and finally get it edited and uploaded...argh.

Also Caroline sent me this frantic message last night, "WE HAVE A SUBSCRIBER!" Yes, Caroline, yes we do.

I started playing Pokemon on my laptop a few days ago, and kind of sort of maybe got addicted. It's pretty awesome. So today while searching my room for my old Nintendo DS Lite, I found this AMX gift card for $50. So when my mom gets home, I'm going to ask her to drive me to Rogoffs and I'm going to buy a Pokemon game. I'm probably going to get either Platinum or Crystal, mostly because my brother had the old versions of those when we were kids and I loved them.

I'm coming to you live (I'm such a weenie, excuse my loserness) from my new Bluetooth keyboard for my iPhone. Ya'll don't even know how great it is to be able to type so freely for these blog posts, emails, etc. I still love the regular keyboard on iPhone, but this is such a convenient tool that it's silly not to take advantage.

I also figured out that Bluetooth is allowed on JetBlue (the airline that I'm flying) and also that I can use it when I have my phone set on Airplane mode. This is just too great. So I will be blogging from 35,000 feet in the air. Yay. But I won't be able to post these blogs since I won't have internet 35,000 feet in the air, so they will be coming to you on Saturday at some point.

Okay, I'll see you later Internet

BEDA 5: "My 'LP'"

My grandma, who is 85, got her first laptop a few weeks ago. She's a longtime desktop PC user, but decided that her HP desktop was just too slow. (She bought it two years ago and it's in better condition than my 1 year old laptop.) So she went to Staples and bought an HP laptop.

She then proceeded to hook it up to her 24 inch monitor, a USB keyboard, and a USB mouse. She also calls it her LP. It's very adorable, because she always called her old desktops, "PC." We all poked fun at her for a while and then the jokes stopped. I can now say that I will never make fun of her LP set up again.

As I mentioned a few days ago, my Dell Inspiron 1450 (or 1350. I still don't know!) has been giving me trouble lately with the keyboard. My H key, my G key, my C key, and my colon key, just to name a few, have all stopped working. I tried to deal with it for a few days, but it got to be too much. So I dug out this old Logitech Bluetooth keyboard, and tried to hook it up and, amazingly, it worked! Then I found this old Microsoft wireless mouse, got that set up, and before I knew it, I had my very own LP situation. Minus the 24 inch computer monitor, that is.

I have to say, I'm really liking this. I'm actually considering getting on of those mini Bluetooth keyboards that Apple makes for their iPhone. That would be very, very convenient. If I could get it before tomorrow at 7:00pm (when I leave for the airport) that would be amazing. I'm going to have to lug this entire set up down to North Carolina. Luckily my mom is checking a suitcase and I can stick my keyboard and mouse in there.


It's very nice not having to Google words with the letter H and G in them to copy and paste into whatever I am typing. I really do suggest this to anyone having keyboard problems because it's actually really awesome, once you get past the whole "I-can't-really-leave-my-desk" thing.


Good day Internet, I'm going to go see how much a Bluetooth keyboard for my iPhone would be. :)

BEDA 4 : Holiday vs. Vacation

I have a bunch of homework to do over the holiday. Yes, I did just say "holiday." Yes, I am aware that I am from America and we do not refer to a break from school/work as a "holiday." An explanation of one of my many oddities is provided for your enjoyment (and, possibly, education) below. 

The word holiday comes from the English "holy day". Easter, the holiday that I will be celebrated while away from home, is a holy day. (If you did not previously know this, I highly suggest "Google-ing" the History of Easter because I am very very worried about you) We here in the United States, Americanized the term "holy day" and created "holiday." 

So that establishes where we get the term holiday from, but why do we Americans say "I'm going on vacation," rather than, "I'm going on holiday?" The word "vacation comes from the verb "to vacate," which basically means "to leave, usually in a hurry." For some reason in America, we associate vacations with exotic beaches, attractive lifeguards, suntans, mixed drinks, and hair braiding. Is this because we are spoiled or, more probably, because we idealize things that we are not exposed to? In even scarier situations, people ignore the things that they live with and then go and pay upwards of a thousand dollars for a beautiful "vacation." 

For example, I am lucky enough to live in one of the most beautiful places on this planet. I have been to the Caribbean, the Bahamas, Bermuda, and Mexico, not to mention many fabulous places in the US, but I have never seen something as amazing as my small hometown. Minutes away from prime fishing locations, seconds away from some of the most amazing beaches on the Atlantic seaboard, conveniently located between the city and the country. It's beautiful. And yet, many families in this town go on beautiful vacations whenever the opportunity presents itself. I get the fact that it's very cold in the North Eastern Seaboard during the late Autumn through early Spring months, and also that it's nice to get away, provided you have the money and the desire, but you should still appreciate how lucky you are. 

Back to the difference between the two terms. Vacation implies, at least to me, that you want to, need to, get the hell out of dodge. So when I go on holiday, it's usually near or including some holy day. 

In the end, the two terms now mean the same thing to most people. I will forever go with the European term of holiday. I do the same thing with journey, rather than "trip." Yeah, I'm a nerd. 

In conclusion, Good Bye.

BEDA Day 3 : Evil Technology

Technology is just failing me the past two days. Two days ago my keyboard on my Dell Inspiron 1450 (or 1350, I'm not entirely sure) started acting up. I thought nothing of it…until my H key popped off. Still nothing because you can still type without the plastic. (I do it all the time with my C key.) Now my G key isn't working at all. Nor is my H key. And that is why I am typing this blog and probably many more on my iPhone. During lunch in the bathroom because I won't have the patience later.

Even better, we (Caroline and I) launched NewYorktoTexas yesterday with my video. Yeah. My computer deleted it twice before I had the sense to upload it directly through WMM. Arghh.

I would say my iPhone is still fine but that's only because my case is indestructible. But also I can't update said phone until I back up music from a previous computer. Argghh.

In other techno news, my Nook is fine. I got a Vera Bradley case for it in Blue Rhapsody. (picture below. Somewhere. Where? I don't have the slightest clue because applications are not nearly detailed enough.

Arghh. (new word? I think so.)

Okay. Goodbye Internet. You might crash before I post anything again due to my bad luck.

BEDA Day 2 : NewYorktoTexas

Hello Internet.

It may be one in the morning, but I hold up that if I haven't gone to sleep for the night, it is still Monday.

Okay, so I talked to Caroline (link to eventually be inserted here) last night about an idea I had.

The idea is a Vlogbrothers style vlogging channel. Caroline loved the idea and immediately said yes. The channel can be found at www.youtube.com/newyorktotexas

Clever aren't we? Caroline lived in Rockaway with me until beginning of this year when she moved to Texas. IE, NEWYORKTOTEXAS.

I'm really excited about this project and we made our first video today, well I did and Caroline's making one tomorrow.

This is gonna be awesome.

Procrastination Breeds Inspiration.

I have two tests this week. I have 3 homework assignments due tomorrow. They can wait.

Okay, so I wrote a Day One BEDA today about my current life occurrences. I also wrote that I plan on beginning to make YouTube videos in May. I just might start earlier. The first one will probably be a Vlogbrothers style 'Thoughts From Places" video. Maybe not. Who knows?

All I know is I might be going to North Carolina in three days. Yes, this is last minute because two days ago I found out we were not going to Virginia for Easter/ Spring Break. Since NC is about 15 hours away by car when you don't abide by the speed limit, I'm probably flying. Even Better.

I also have a great TM idea that I wanna run by Caroline before I blog about it... but it should be good. Since she's my best friend, we often have the same idea in our heads at the same time, so I'm almost positive she won't think I'm crazy. Almost.


Okay. Yeah. So that's all I had to say...

BEDA Day 1 : Attempting to do this.

I am really, really bad at daily commitments.
Like, terrible.

For instance, every year since I was 5 I tried to keep a diary and never succeeded. Well, except for sixth grade when my life got interesting, but even then I didn't remember to do it every day. I've also tried to do those Facebook photo challenges where you post a picture every day for fifty days... Yeah, I failed miserably.

But maybe, just maybe, I will be able to succeed at this. I mean, I have an app on my iPhone for Blogger, I have access to internet practically everywhere. It might be possible.

In other news about my life:

In May, I'm going to start trying to make YouTube videos. In June, I'm going to VidCon. If you do not know what Vid Con is, you need to click here. That will take you to the VlogBrothers video on John Green's favorite VidCon 2011 moments. And then click here to get your tickets to VidCon 2012 in 
Anaheim, California. 


So, I've been making music a lot. Sometimes with this girl, sometimes not.

And also trying to get this guy Dylan, to sell this other guy Matt to Guatemala. His response was just golden. Matt is still in NY for the time being..... how unfortunate.

Also, April is a big month for the births of people I happen to know, so that should help me blog more frequently.


Let's try this internet.
